I ttia with flill more propriety, and indeed with the highefl flrlÃtnefs, and the rnolt perfect accuracy, contidered as a law, when accordin to thofe iuft and magnificent views which philofopgmy and religion open tous of the government ot the world, it is received and reverenccd as the facred code, promulgated by the great Lcgillator ofthe univerfe for the guicitce of his creatures to happinefs, guarded and enforced, as our own experience mgittnform us, by the penal fanÃlions of ihame, of remor e, of infamy, and of mifery ;and flill fartix renforced by the reafonable expeÃlation of yet more awful penalties in a future and more permanent llate of exiltence. It is the contetnplation of the law of nature under this full, mature, and perfect idea of its high origin and tranfcendent dignity, that called forth the enthuliaftn of the greatell men, and thegreateit writers of ancient and modern times, in thofe fublime defcriptions, where they have exhaulled all the powers of language, and furpalled all the other exertions, even of their own eloquence in the difplay of the beauty and matelly of this fovereign and immutable law.
